Testo Lies - Chris Cornell, Gabin

Lies

Now I can see clear
I can touch visions of my past
Lost in a dark maze — Lies they grow so fast
Leave my lies forever, when reality’s so near
Leave my lies forever, while illusions disappear
Look at those pictures,
See no one I’m supposed to be Sharp as a light blade — Know it wasn’t me Change my life forever, & I’m jumping on a train
Change my life forever, rails glitter in the rain
…I open my eyes
Dare cross the border,
Landing safely on different sides
I change dusty wishes, for a new desire
Change my life forever (x2)
See all around me walk,
Empty shadows don’t feel, don’t talk
Lies in the mirror play, & I’m blown away
Leave my lies forever, thick make-up on my face
Leave my lies forever, but no, this is not my place
…I open my eyes
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (x2)
Change my life forever (x2)
Dreams in the desert glow
Burning chance of some water source
I’m running so far — I’m running seawards
Diving into gold…
Change my life forever,
See the beauty of mistakes
Change my life forever, when reality awakes
…I open my eyes
